New to Gas Gas

Hi all

After over 22 years I've gone and got myself a replacement for my PE 250 which was stolen, EC 250 Six Day Edition 2008 or that's what it was sold to me as, how can I tell if it is a Six Day Edition? All sticker have been removed due to peeling.
You could write all I know about Enduro bikes now on a posted stamp, am beginning to realises how much this sport is going to cost me, wish I found this forum before buying.

Anyway I have 3 lose spokes on the back wheel which won't tighten up, is it ok to just replace with new ones and tighten up myself?

If you have a couple vise grips with good teeth on them, a propane torch, a good spoke wrench that fits the nipple nice and tight and some liquid wrench you can usually get the nipples to break free. I use 2 vise grips because one usually just slips on the spoke and tears it up.

Thank for the advice, however I've tried WD 40 over night and some vice grips but the buggers won't move just tearing the spokes so I have ordered new ones.
